I agree that it is completely safe to keep the basic structure the same. My proposal just makes the things even simpler. I would like to know a litle bit more about your plans about executable tools. Lets imagine that there is a library and a preprocesor which are bundled in single package.
That reminds me of the other complicating factor of the gtk2hs build system. We use 3 bundled source code generators/preprocessors which need to be built to build the other library packages but theses build tools do not get installed. I'm quite happy with leaving the shipments layer until later. Tackle the low hanging fruit first. As a shipment (a collection of inter-dependent packages) gtk2hs is not too hard to describe. It has 5 library packages (some of which may not be built) and 3 executable packages (though the executables are not installed). Duncan
